Riverkeepers on the Chester

The Delmarva Peninsula is well known for its beautiful rural working landscapes. Over the course of the next week students would spend time with farmers, academics, environmental watchdogs, lawyers and businessmen learning about how preserving the health of the land and the profitability of the farm are essential to a strong and thriving Chesapeake.

On October 19, students met with local riverkeepers and farmers to see their work first hand.
